LF: Re: 500kHz last night

Albert, WSPR enthusiasts

 

Glad to receive your WSPR signal last night (as well as M0BMU, SM6BHZ and G4JNT). Conditions must have been very good last night as I had first time reception of G4JNT. I might have been able to receive more EU stations more often  but the combined US/EU WSPR 'band' causes receiving limitations due to strong local WSPR signals. 

 

I'll be happy to listen for your cw signal on any night - either post your operation here or e mail direct. Curious about the details of your transmitting setup. Maybe you already mentioned it - if so I missed the details.

Dr OM,s

 

I have been whispering during the night of 10/11 jan with rather good results. My idea was to find out if, using my current setting, it would be possible to work USA with normal CW. Around 02:42 WD2XSH/17 reported a SNR of -12 dB and thats to my knowledge just enough for a  CW QSO using good ears and a normal bandwidth suited for this mode. Reports received from the following US-stations: W1VD, WA3USG, KL1X, KL1X/5 and WD2XSH- /17, /37, /10.

 

Best DX: 2010-01-11, 03:20 UTC, 0.503899, -27 dB SNR, KL1X/5, EM26ar, 7546 km.

 

You can also take the best of both worlds.
